Leading the Way Travelling with a Sensory Impairment in London March 2016 Transport Committee Leading the way Travelling with a sensory impairment in London March 2016 Chair’s foreword In my time as Chair of the Transport Committee it has been a privilege to work with many disabled Londoners and to endorse their call for rights as passengers on the transport network. Passengers with a sensory impairment face significant barriers to mobility, but so many refuse to accept the restrictions imposed by poorly designed services. I pay tribute to their persistence, and also to the many voluntary organisations who organise and support disability access campaigns, or provide essential insights, briefings and training to transport providers. The information and analysis they have shared with the Committee during our investigation into this topic has been invaluable. In the past decade we have seen Transport for London make great strides to improve accessibility, reflecting a genuine commitment to make the transport network inclusive of all Londoners. Just recently, TfL has taken steps to improve disability training for bus drivers, making it consistent across all operators, addressing a long-standing concern expressed by people with a sensory impairment. We warmly welcome TfL’s world-leading commitment to disability access in London, but there is no scope for complacency. We cannot take progress for granted. Indeed, as the transport network changes, new challenges arise. For instance, while many people welcome the introduction of cleaner, quieter buses, the implications of this trend for visually impaired Londoners – who rely on sound to stay safe on London’s roads – may be profound. While segregated Cycle Superhighways will help boost safety for cyclists, they create new risks for sensory impaired Londoners who may be unable to cross the Superhighways to reach a new ‘floating’ bus stop. TfL’s budget will come under significant pressure as its grant funding from the Government is reduced. The investment required for an accessible transport network is at risk. This is, therefore, a crucial time for Londoners seeking to travel around the city with a sensory impairment. As we heard during our investigation, there are two competing visions of the future. Will people with a sensory impairment be left behind, quite literally, as the last people sitting on the bus or the train? Or will London have a truly accessible transport network that reflects the needs of people with a sensory impairment at every stage from design to service delivery? In this cross-party report we set out a practical agenda to help the new Mayor to deliver on the ambition of making London’s transport network the most accessible in the world. There are no easy solutions to achieve that. A coordinated and ongoing effort to meet the needs of people with a sensory impairment across all transport modes is required. On this difficult issue, like many others, there’s no substitute for sticking at it, keeping up the effort and staying alert to the opportunities new technology may offer.

The progress made in this area was reflected in praise we heard for Transport for London from a number of Londoners with a sensory impairment, for instance for the ‘turn up and go’ assistance available at Tube and London Overground stations, and for the introduction of the iBus system on London’s buses. However, our investigation has highlighted a wide range of issues which put this leading status at risk. Despite evidence of progress in improving accessibility, some recent developments may seem like backward steps from the perspective of Londoners with a sensory impairment, not least changes in Tube station staffing, bus design and pavement layouts. Specific concerns raised by Londoners with a sensory impairment and representative organisations included: Difficulties obtaining passenger information, particularly real-time service information, which is accessible for people with a sensory impairment. Barriers to travelling independently with confidence, such as difficulties moving around stations or using private hire services with assistance dogs. A number of problems using the bus network, including those arising from the variety of bus designs in London and the provision of hearing loops. Variability in levels of awareness, skills and understanding among staff on the transport network. Difficulties navigating the street environment and ‘shared space’ areas, with emerging concerns about the introduction of bus stop cycle bypasses, also known as ‘floating bus stops’. The challenges facing Londoners travelling with a sensory impairment differ according to the transport mode being used. While there are inevitable differences between modes, providers need to recognise that many journeys will involves multiple forms of transport. Consistency of provision and standards, and accessible interchanges, are vital for people with sensory impairment to enable them to travel across London. Overall, it is clear that TfL and other operators have much to do. This has to remain a priority for the next Mayor, who should guarantee the necessary investment in infrastructure, technology and staffing that is required to increase the accessibility of the transport network. Our investigation identified a number of practical measures, which we would like to see being implemented by TfL and others: Improving the provision of real-time travel information across the network, in formats accessible for people with a sensory impairment. Making ‘turn up and go’ a reality for passengers, by increasing the skills, availability and visibility of staff on TfL services and the National Rail network. 4 Scaling up TfL’s mentoring service for disabled passengers, supplemented with other initiatives such as offering station tours. Increasing enforcement against private hire operators and drivers who refuse to accept passengers with assistance dogs, and facilitating complaints from passengers who have experienced this problem. Ensuring greater consistency in bus design, including the availability of hearing loops and providing clearer, accessible signage. Using technology to making it easier for visually impaired bus passengers to identify the bus they need to board. Working with boroughs to remove excess street clutter from London’s pavements, while applying consistent guidance to ensure ‘shared space’ environments are safe for pedestrians with a sensory impairment, including assistance dog users. Monitoring the impact of TfL’s experimental bus stop bypasses on pedestrian safety, and undertaking thorough analysis before committing to wider roll-out. Strengthening TfL’s customer charter to set out the service standards which people with a sensory impairment can expect when using the transport network. These measures will help improve the accessibility of London’s transport network for people with a sensory impairment, increasing their mobility and safety. We urge the new Mayor and TfL to renew their focus on this issue, and ensure they provide the necessary funding to make continued accessibility improvements. We will ask them to report back to the Committee to set out their next steps. 5 1. Introduction Every day in London 1.3 million journeys are made by disabled people, and 700,000 trips are taken by people aged over 75. Significant numbers of Londoners have a sensory impairment: Over a million Londoners have a hearing loss,1 over 80,000 of whom have a severe or profound hearing loss.2 Approximately 175,000 Londoners living with sight loss.3 Over 30,000 Londoners have a significant dual sensory impairment or deafblindness.4 The Mayor published his Transport Strategy Accessibility Implementation Plan in March 2012. In December 2012, the Mayor and TfL launched Your accessible transport network,5 a guide setting out action taken by TfL to make the transport network accessible. An update was published in May 2015.6 TfL will also soon publish an updated set of commitments in Action on Equality: TfL’s commitments to 2020. Clearly there is a corporate commitment to embed better accessibility into policy and spending programmes. Accessibility initiatives particularly targeted at people with a sensory impairment include online information about the accessibility of the network, hearing loops and the digital iBus system in buses to provide audio and visual information on upcoming stops7, training of staff in communication and guiding skills, and developing the new Wayfindr app for visually impaired passengers.8 People with a sensory impairment may prefer to travel with or without assistance. Their preference may depend on a number of factors, including their familiarity and/or confidence with a route or mode, access to information, design of space and vehicles, and the knowledge, attitudes and behaviour of staff and the public. We explored all of these issues in our investigation. The Committee has carried out a range of previous work in this area. Over several years we have investigated failings in the provision of door-to-door services for disabled people, including Dial-a-Ride and Taxicard. We have also examined the accessibility of both the pedestrian environment and of London’s taxi and private hire services, publishing reports on these topics in 2014. In 2015 we published a report examining TfL’s customer service standards, taking into account the needs of disabled people in particular.
